Re: K-Drama: 집으로 가는 길 (The Road Home)

Not only did bio mom go through losing her husband and giving birth without her husband, but to her, the baby died. She's really suffered. But there was something else to it and not sure if they will bring it out but when bio mom tried to attend her husband's services Aunt screamed and yelled at her and told her it was her fault he died. Gramps blamed his son (Dr dad) for the other son's death.

I believe someone called the dead son that night (think bio mom) for him to come home and somehow Dr dad was involved. I hope they explain that.

Tonite ep was very good. It shows how much the two school kids still care for each other. It showed the love that Hyeonsu and Suin still have for each other (loved that the two moms were together when they each got the phone call from Hyeonsu/Suin saying they were spending the night at the beach for their project).

And just as I was trying to prepare myself for the possibility of Sumi and Hiro growing close, I saw preview that show Jisu asking Hiro to go some where with her and he tells her she's asking him out on a date... TOO CUTE..

Also loved that Jisu and bio mom met and that regular mom was the one that set it up.. GREAT...

If I'm not mistaken and I sometimes am, aunt called Dr Dad to come to her house, because of a fight with her husband, I think over money. Dr dad couldn't make it so he called their other brother to go instead.

I don't think bio mom was involved in any way. Again, Maybe I'm wrong.

Re: K-Drama: 집으로 가는 길 (The Road Home)

I just remember them showing bio mom (when she was younger) trying to go to her husbands services and the big mouth Auntie started screaming at her to leave and told her it was all her fault he (Auntie's brother/bio mom's hubby) died. I hope they explain things for me because I'm not good at reading between the lines...

Think it was something like episode #86 tonight. That means we really don't have that much longer to go. I think all dramas should be 120 or less episodes... Those 160+ are just too much of a commitment.

Yes, smoochie, the aunt's husband took/stole/lost $500 and she pestered Dr. Dad to come be a witness or something. That aunt is the center of everything wrong in that family and she's getting away with it.

I understand that bio-mom is very much traumatized but there's always a breaking point. How much more will she take before she screams from the top of her lungs at someone and never take it back? Sumi is the child here and 24 years old, yet she lets Sumi disrespect her constantly. That girl could not live in my house if I were bio mom.

K-Drama: 집으로 가는 길 (The Road Home)

The melodrama of this show which started out as if it was going reach above the quality of the other stories during this time period has become a little too trite and badly conceived and too predictable.

This would not have been the actual funeral service but probably the first annual memorial service (or 49-day 'send off' service?). S-Mom had not yet given birth to Jisu when her husband was killed in the car accident. As mentioned above, if anyone was responsible for his death, it would be Auntie. She had called for her brother, Dr. Dad, to come over immediately to be her "witness" for the divorce she was then threatening over the $500. He in turn sent his younger brother, who was killed.

Why Auntie is so hateful towards S-Mom, and needing to blame her has never been explained. I suspect this is one of those details that will be glossed over and forgotten. Just a plot point that was convenient at the time.

Re: K-Drama: 집으로 가는 길 (The Road Home)

Thanks for the clarification. I think Aunt must be suffering some internal guilt but can't accept it so she can only point the finger at others. She seems to be a pretty good wife and mother but that's as far as it goes. She is right there to torment her brother and his family.

Minsu sure has become timid lately.

I like Minsu. His bad behaviour can be attributed to the way his Dad treated him.

I think a big reason for Minsu's bad behavior is the fact that most times his mother would intercede and make excuses for him if he did something wrong. That meant he usually didn't have to take responsibility for his actions and deal with the consequences. As a result he tends to be rather immature and self centered.
As for Auntie...she is oblivious to the fact that her behavior has caused so much pain and unpleasantness. She usually says-I don't know why they are all yelling at me!
And S-Mom is a passive aggressive person. Before it is done, she will unleash her anger in a loud and nasty way. P.A. people save all that anger up and then BLAM! release it. Some of the people on the receiving end of that explosion are going to say-what's wrong with her? I didn't do anything. I am hoping that Sumi and Auntie are together with her when she finally let's it go. And she will let it go. If she doesn't release all the resentment and anger she feels, she could get very ill physically.

Notice !!! For those of you who watch KBS World, it has been moved, and you need an upgrade in your Dish receivers if you wish to continue to receive the international stations. I guess, you can get on your digital receivers.
